On Saturday as the country was under attack,several world leaders sent their reactions to the media sending condolences and words of encouragement to the survivors.
UN secretary general Ban Ki Moon,UK PM,Whitehouse amongst many world leaders sent in their views but all this times one person was unusually silent,the president of the nation himself Uhuru Kenyatta.
Even Ruto from Hague made a statement ahead of him. During Uhuru's address to the nation where he warned the Al Shabaab that they'll meet full force of the law.
But the president was looking unusually disturbed and in his speech he broke the news which as you will soon learn was a forceful factor downing his Morale.
The president had lost a close relative,sources from statehouse and NE can confirm this is,the president lost his nephew who is named Mbugua. Unluckily he was with his fiancee who was also shot dead as well. (photo below)
The two were trapped inside when the terrorists raided the mall and lost their lives to the sprays of bullets.
We are also getting reports that the president's son Jomo and his sister Kristina Pratt together with his PA Gecaga.
Luckily they've both been rescued and in safety. The departed nephew to the president are said to have shared close ties.
It's said the president broke into real tears and as he was expected to stand up as head of state he was at the same time mourning the loss of a relative. Its said he shed real tears and this could as well be attributed to the delay in the president's breaking of silence and finally addressing nation.
It can't go without mention to commend the president for standing strong wiped his tears and gave the nation an assurance as well as a stern warning to the terrorists.
Together with the so far 43+ fatalities may the souls rest in peace,to the injured,quick recovery.
it was really a sad event to happen.loosing ones relative can make one breakdown and this has nothing to do with ones position.the effect remains the same.
